  1. Thank you Tina for organizing such a wonderful resource list!!

  2. Hello, I am currently homeschooling my 9 year old grandson. I am looking for a group for park meet-ups or field trips in the Clovis area. I did find a mention of something online held at Bicentennial Park, but search as I might, I cannot find it again. If anyone knows of this group or any suggestions of another group, I would appreciate the info. Thank you.

    1. We haven’t had the Bicentennial Park days for years…if it’s the one from way back when…But there are park days being organized via the Fresno Area Homeschoolers group on Facebook. Come join us! https://www.facebook.com/groups/FresnoAreaHomeschoolers

    2. Need phone number of someone that help my son- in – law to talk to people of getting a a social group to help him

      1. I’m not sure what you’re asking? The info on this page is for helping homeschoolers to find their own social groups. If your son-in-law is a homeschooler, he can use the info on this page to reach out to various local homeschool groups in our area and find ways to connect with others.

  3. Hello!
    My husband and I are planning to return to Fresno. Our son is 9 and we just started homeschooling last year. We currently live in West Michigan and there is no shortage of homeschooling options, classes, oportunities and they even have a building with a book store here! Im looking to see what the resources are, if there are any groups to get involved with, extra curricular activities ect. Thanks!!!

    1. There’s tons of stuff…just depends on what you’re looking for!

  4. Hi,
    My son and I recently moved to the Fresno area. I am currently homeschooling him and was looking for available volunteer opportunities for him. Does anyone know of any organizations looking for teen volunteers in the Fresno/Clovis area.?

    1. Sorry, just saw this…None specifically, sorry, but https://www.handsoncentralcal.org/ would be a good place too ask!

  5. My wife and I are planning on moving back to the Fresno Clovis area. We need help finding a home school charter that will allow us to teach non common core etc. also is there charters that give extra $$$$ for classes at places such as Taekwondo art Lego engineering. We get credits to send our kids there. This would be helpful to find this information

    1. Currently the only local homeschool charter that provides funding to homeschoolers that I recommend is Inspire charter…but do keep in mind it does come with public school requirements like testing and standards and unless you sign up with a special program they don’t have on site classes. There are also other homeschool charters that provide their own on-site classes but do not provide direct funding. Check this page: http://fresnofamily.com/homeschooling/local-homeschool-options/ for all the local options.

  6. I am so discouraged with the normal school system for my special needs ADHD 10 year old son. Looking into homeschooling him for the upcoming school year but feel discouraged and overwhelmed in this. Any tips out there from homeschool families who do homeschool special needs children? Thanks – Shahna

    1. Come join us on the Fresno Area Homeschoolers Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/FresnoAreaHomeschoolers/ I know there are quite a few families with special needs children on there. I’m sure they can give you support and advice.

      1. Hello , I am a first year mom to homeschooling. My little one is in kindergarten. I was having a hard time finding a group for her and decided to put one together. It’s completely free to join for the whole family and not only does it offer fun but as well as fun educational tours, playgroups, and much more for all ages. I was hoping I can be listed in your list of homeschooling support groups. Are website is https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/UnitedChristianHomeschoolingFamilies/info. I would love to share our fun homeschooling experience with all. Thank you so much for all your help and support.

  7. Any charlotte mason type homeschool groups in or around fresno? thanks.

    1. Oh, wow, I don’t know of any CM groups in this area, but I was searching for one too! That’s how I got to this site. I’ll try to remember to keep checking this page for a response. It’s nice to know there’s at least one other family interested in CM here too. 🙂

  8. I am trying to figure out if homeschooling my four year old is the best option, is there and advice or tips I could get on weather it is the best thing? I would like to hear your opinion on homeschooling vs. public school just having a hard tome deciding what to do with my daughter.

    1. A friend and I do a podcast called the Savvy Homeschool Moms: http://www.savvyhomeschoolmoms.com You may find that helpful in deciding.
